When we dream we immediately entertain the world of possibilities and open the door to growth. Here's what some smart people have to say about the topic.
Henry David Thoreau:
I have learned, that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.
Anatole France:
To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.
Carl Jung:
Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.
Carl Sandburg:
Nothing happens unless first a dream.
Elizabeth Gilbert:
The inability to open up to hope is what blocks trust, and blocked trust is the reason for blighted dreams.
You too can pursue your dreams at any moment, it just takes deliberate thought and action.

Lost and Hopeless
People often ask me what to do when they feel lost and hopeless. It's very normal to lose hope at times or feel their is no hope but it's what you do with those feelings that will lead you toward success or lack thereof. Think about the following ideas next time you feel there is no way out:
1. Think of a time when you were not lost and hopeless. What did it feel like?
2. List five things that worked for you to overcome the lost and hopeless feelings in the past.
3. What are five things that are going well currently.
4. What are five things you do well.
5. What is one thing I can do right now to change my situation.
The only way we can redirect our lives is by taking action. Think of these five steps, they will help you re-focus your energy and think about the things you can actually do to improve your situation.
Ever notice that people who mope around all the time tend to get stuck moping? Here's your chance to get unstuck by simply doing something different. Taking action in a different direction makes all the difference.
